Chapter 6

Brittany -

I just stared into her big beautiful eyes.

‘Can I ask…’

Dani: ‘Anything, you can ask me anything, always.’

‘Do you um...wanting to kiss me is it because you want to hurt me?’

She lightly held my cheek.

Dani: ‘I want to kiss you, because even knowing there's so much more to learn about you everything so far is incredible. You're beautiful and funny. You're kind and smart. Despite how much I might enjoy hurting you and would hope you would enjoy it too, I want to kiss you, because I'm human and I have a drop dead gorgeous young woman in my lap. A beautiful girl I spent my afternoon with and enjoyed chatting so much I never got around to talking about the reason I reached out to her in the first place. Because even if the kiss is just short and sweet I hope it would offer you comfort. I hope it would be something we share that you look back on fondly even if you don't want it to happen again. Even if you ask not to see me again. To be simple I don't know all the reasons why, but I can assure you thinking about how badly I would like to kiss you right now, hurting you is the last thing I want to be connected. I want to kiss you because being with you gives me butterflies.’

Without thinking I pressed my lips to hers.

It was a short fast peck then I pulled back an inch amazed I had actually just kissed her.

One hand moved over my lower back as the other moved to the back of my head firmly holding me as she slowly pulled me into another kiss.

It was so soft but powerful at the same time I was lost in it.

It was like her lips were guiding mine to follow them and they did.

With the slightest subtle opening of her lips I felt the soft tip of her tongue touch mine.

Without even noticing it turned to gentle, but slow lingering moments of our lips just resting against each other.

She smiled opening her eyes.

I don't know why, but suddenly I was overcome by this desire.

I grabbed her shoulders and forced my lips back onto hers.

She gently took my hands in hers, but to my surprise she started easing up again ending the kiss.

She held my cheek again looking into my eyes.

Dani: ‘Don't let your head go where it's likely trying to go. I'm not rejecting you. It isn't a lack of desire it's the opposite. You're upset and taking in some confusing things. Like I said I want you to look back and smile, not feel regret. If you want to stay, calm down and just chill, I will promise at least one kiss good night.’

I didn't know what to say so I nodded.

She noticed and smiled again planting a soft kiss again on my cheek.

Dani: ‘So how about we finish our dinner we hardly started.’

‘I-I well not that it's not great, but sometimes when I get upset and cry like I was, I can't really eat a lot of things. I'm sorry.’

I hung my head, but she quickly lifted it by my chin.

Dani: ‘So what can you eat? There may not be a whole lot here, but I can have anything in the state delivered.’

‘You would would laugh.’

Dani: ‘So, I was always into girls, even some guys, but never told anyone until I was fifteen, when I was at the beach with my best friend. We went to a local pier at night, and there was a really cute singer. A few nights in, my friend sees her staring at me, checking me out. She walked over. We chatted a few minutes and my friend made a bad joke about the girl's eyes being glued to my ass. She leaned in and informed me that my ass got her attention the first night, but tonight, she was pretty sure my period had surprised me. My light denim shorts couldn't really hide it.’

I gave her an odd look since I was confused and didn't know what to say.

Dani: ‘She didn't laugh at me. She offered some shorts since she was staying across from the pier. We exchanged numbers, say hi every now and then. So is whatever you were going to say, worse that that?’

‘Holy hell, no not at all. Scrambled eggs preferably with cheese. It's a long story, but they're my comfort food.’

Dani: ‘Noted. I think I have half a dozen. So if you want to splash water on your face or just go ahead and change into your pajamas I'll scramble some eggs. The Italian will heat up and make a fantastic snack later if you don't run away or anything.’
